I would bet my money on the sagging lines just from looking around but that’s not to give any points to the driver either most the true old schoolers are getting off the road it’s the younger ones causing harm if you ask me
They come through there all the time. The lines had to have dropped lower or something
@Farmhill Nothing says the load was too high. Could have been lines were too low.
The log truck looks like it has a higher load than the lowboy with the tractor on it or is it just an illusion.
MONDAY!
I no longer blame them. All utilities should be underground by now.
Muscogee Road area seems to be a magnet for wrecks and other traffic related incidences. people pay attention, please.
I guess these people that have a load or pulling one doesn’t know how tall their load is!
